ℹ️ About these numbers
4 measures explainedWhat net price, cost of attendance, graduation rate and earnings each measure, and why a dash is not a zero.
Net price is what a student who gets federal aid actually paid on average after grants and scholarships — usually far below the sticker tuition. Graduation rate is the share finishing within 150% of normal time (six years for a four-year degree). Earnings are the median for students ten years after they started, whether or not they finished. Cost of attendance is the college’s own estimate of a full year for a full-time student living on campus: tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, and other costs - before any aid. The 🎓 Admissions & cost button on a card breaks it down.
A dash means the college did not report that figure, often because too few students were in the group to publish it. It is not zero.
